Does this "playing hard to get" even work?

These days, almost every one including me is trying to follow that "dating rules" thing. Specially that "playing hard to get" or whatever u call it. But It makes me frustrated and I can't be myself around the person that I actually like a lot and want to just grab and kiss immediately lol. But when I think that I don't have to follow these rules, I get to the point that I just have to do it to have him SUCCESSFULLY! Do u guys also feel and act like this? I just wanted to share my feeling here as no one knows me here lol.

Playing hard to get is by far the best method... to ruin all your chances with that guy! Guys don't want to date children. They want to date mature adults. Screw those BS dating "rules" they're made by children who think stupid garbage that makes no sense.

I'm guessing is includes that "3 day rule" with the texting? Yea... because you're gonna text your buddies back 3 days later if they need something right?

If you're surrounded by people who all seem to be doing these "dating rules" you're surrounded by idiots. Find new people to hang out with asap.

Playing games is not my style. My theory is this... If a guy truly likes you then he wouldn't care about the rules. He won't care how soon you reply or how expressive you are. With all my past boyfriends there werent ever games or playing hard to get.

Playing hard to get will not work. There are just too many other women that the man can go after so why bother putting extra effort into you? What makes you so special? Are you God's gift to men? Of course not! So unless he's already really into you, it won't work and he'll drift away and find somebody else that he will be in to.
